Hi folks,

Here's my collection so far. I use two T5 tubes.

B52:

Akai Ryu, which until recently has just sat and looked dead:
Image

G14, which is quickly becoming one of my favourites:
Image

Dracula, which is getting on slowly and steadily, and looking pretty awesome. Does anyone know what the small green plant on the right hand side is?
Image

SL15, which has the best colouration in my collection:
Image

Giant All Red, more like giant all dead despite living in exactly the same conditions as all the other plants:
Image

Triffid Red Clone I:
Image

Drosera madagascariensis, I'm FINALLY managing to grow one!

Nice coloration.... what wattage/coloration of T5's are you using? What is the average humidity and temperature of the room?
I was thinking of using T5's or just a 6500K 23W CFL on one plant on my B-52.

thnx

Both of the T5 tubes are 24W. I don't have the boxes or order information any more, but I think one is 6800K and the other 3600K. At any rate one is high in the blue spectrum and the other is softer and in the red spectrum. My room's average temperature is probably 21 Celsius, no idea about the humidity though. I don't think it's really all that humid, though.
